Event 620 is logged differently based on the OS. In Win2000, the domain controller logs this event when there are trust additions. It does not log if there are removals, and treats both newly trusted domains and previously trusted domains similarly.

In Win2003, this event is logged whenever an existing trusted domain's properties are modified.

This log data provides the following information:

Domain Name

Domain ID

User Name

Domain

Logon ID
